Your Guide to Creating the Ultimate Outdoor Oasis

Fresh air. Fresh outlook. We know it has been a rough couple of months and now we want to help you spend quality time outdoors! From fire pits to fountains and grill stations to covered patio retreats, we’ve built it all. With Drees, you can live outside like never before and embark on the creation of your own outdoor oasis.

Select a Fireplace or Fire Pit

The options are endless when it comes to fireplace and fire pit design. First, determine if you would like a fire feature incorporated into your home design or if you prefer that it lives as a separate design element – say out on the patio or in the yard. From there, take your pick of stone or brick and start dreaming up an enchanting design that will sure to be a hit among your family.

Create a Covered Patio Retreat

A covered patio retreat is the perfect place to cuddle up with a book or catch up with family. It is also a great space for a built-in fireplace topped off with a TV display. You’ll be the envy of all your neighborhood when it comes to Friday night hangouts or lazy Saturday afternoons.

Enhance with Fountains or Water Features

A fountain brings a tranquil sense to an outdoor space. The constant movement of the water creates a calming feeling that’s impossible to deny. Water features are a sure way to enhance your at-home outdoor experience.

Select Specialties for the Grill Master

The grill is an obvious must-have, but a built-in gourmet grilling area, complete with surface space for food prep or a buffet, a sink and other common kitchen luxuries like a mini fridge, wine cooler, warming drawer or ice maker, is a winning setup for any outdoor chef. We promise this is an outdoor feature that pleases every crowd.

Open Up Your Space

Bring the outside in by blending two beloved spaces. You can have a wall of windows one minute and direct access to your outdoor living area the next. This approach removes all physical and visual barriers, creating one large space, ideal for entertaining.

Design the Ultimate Oasis

Narrowed down your must-haves, but have several ideal outdoor living areas on your list? Be strategic about the placement of each. Creating distinct zones for dining, conversation, backyard fun or relaxing around the fire will not only maximize the functionality but also create a space that is visually interesting and beautiful.
